Look inside
Automate complex, multi-step tasks and jobs with a system of specialized AI agents.
AI agents are a great way to automate individual tasks within an application. Combining many agents into a coordinated workflow–a multi-agent system–amplifies the potential for agents to solve complex problems. Multi-Agent Systems with AutoGen teaches you how to build collaborative teams of AI agents that can tackle tasks far beyond the capabilities of the standard prompt-and-response approach.
Inside Multi-Agent Systems with AutoGen you’ll learn how:
Multi-Agent Systems with AutoGen is written by the creator of AutoGen Studio Dr. Victor Dibia.. These expert authors distill their collective research and insights into a practical guide to building your first multi-agent systems. Complex concepts are made simple with concrete diagrams, examples, and code. You’ll design and implement AI applications that can solve tasks from telling you the weather all the way to developing software.

about the book
In Multi-Agent Systems with AutoGen you’ll get familiar with building multi-agent applications and AutoGen, an open source AI framework to create AI assistants that can handle tasks once impossible to automate. You’ll apply the techniques you learn to building a whole host of useful AI assistants—from AI financial analysts capable of analyzing stocks and providing data-grounded responses, to travel agents that can search and book flights to your budget and preferences.The book goes far deeper than the fundamentals of agent implementation to explore the other factors vital to your agent’s success. You’ll find best practices for building the right human-AI user interface, evaluation techniques that help you learn from failures, performance optimizations, and methods for ensuring user security and privacy.

Great first 4 chapters and interactive website
January 20, 2025 by A Reviewer (United States)
“I have read the first 4 chapters of the book and learned alot.
The author (a maintainer of the popular AutotGen framework) really invests time in explaining core concepts and illustrating them with examples.
Chapter 1 gives you a strong over of multiagent systems, when they are the right tool and the types of complex problems they are good for. Chapter 2 contains code (also on github) but expressing the basic ideas in code.
The author also has a website (multiagentbook.com) with interactive examples and code you can explore before you clone the GitHub repo. I appreciate that effort was made to compare implementation in AutoGen with other libraries like LangGraph. I hope the author adds more of these examples as it makes it easy for others to build on.
Looking forward to the complete book, the outline looks great!”

I appreciate the process of providing value even while the book is being written.
It would be great to have physical copies soon that I can share with colleagues as references!”
